With the release of firmware 11.0, Nintendo has finally decided to simplify the process of sharing screenshots taken from the Switch console. In fact, now it is possible to send up to 10 shots simultaneously (or a single video), through a process based on the use of QR codes. Unfortunately, however, the saving of the contents on the smartphone gallery, however, takes place more slowly, since it will be necessary to export them individually.
Today, however, thanks to the application "Commands" and to a shortcut developed by MacStories, we're going to see how to further simplify sharing Nintendo Switch screenshots on iPhone and iPad.
